Tottenham's £60m new boy Richarlison hit with FA ban before he's even played for Spurs

Tottenham Hotspur summer arrival Richarlison is being forced to wait for his debut following his £60m switch after being hit with an FA ban.

The Brazilian striker was confirmed as a Spurs player last week, the former Everton man penning a five-year contract in north London and adds to an already-talented pool of attacking options at the club. Despite the initial excitement surrounding his arrival, it appears that Spurs fans will have to wait a little longer to see Richarlison make his debut for the club next season.

He has been handed a one-match FA ban following an infamous flare throwing incident last term against Chelsea. An investigation was initially launched after the Brazilian appeared to hurl a lit pyrotechnic back into the Goodison Park crowd after netting in a crucial 1-0 victory against the Blues.
